Bridger Creek
Subdivision Community Association
Board of Directors’
Meeting
Monday, June 5, 2017
The meeting was called
to order at 6:05 pm at Tom Wilson’s house.
Board
members: Sharyn Anhalt, Tom Wilson, Dian
Bottcher, Karin Jennings and Dorick Savageau were present
Approval of Minutes –
The minutes from the Board
Meeting held May 22, 2017 were approved unanimously without modification.
Easement Request for
Murphy Property –
Following review and discussion a motion was made for the Board to sign the
revised Utility Easement between the Association and the City with the legal
changes required by the City; which was approved unanimously. Per the
terms of the Utility Easement it will not “become valid and effective until
such time as the benefited property has received final site plan or final
subdivision plat approval from the City of Bozeman.” The previous agreement
between the Association and Golf Course Partners will also be updated to
reflect the new Utility Easement date.
Stormwater Systems – Dorick reported that he presented
sharing of maintenance costs for the subdivision’s stormwater systems to Golf
Course Partners and reported that Golf Course Partner’s answer is “no”. Following
further discussion it was agreed that Tom will seek bids from Morrison Maeirle
(original engineering firm for development of the subdivision) as well as
others to initiate review of the stormwater systems for the next steps,
including budgeting.
Management Company – Tom reported that he contacted
several (4-5) companies with experience managing homeowner’s associations.
Several expressed that they were too busy to take on any more associations. Tom
will follow up with and obtain a proposal from one company to circulate for
review by the Board and further steps, if any.
Lot Maintenance – Following discussion the Board
agreed to draft and send a letter to owners of vacant lots that are not mowing
or managing noxious weeds. It was further agreed to not take action on
complaints regarding developed lots due to the subjective nature of such
complaints. Noxious weed complaints can be reported directly to the County for
enforcement (http://gallatincomt.virtualtownhall.net/Public_Documents/gallatincomt_weed/ComplaintForm2017.pdf).
Dues Notices – A motion was made to submit annual
dues notices by mail in the amount of $75/lot for FY July 1, 2017 – June 30,
2018; which was approved unanimously.
The meeting was
adjourned at 7:30 pm.
